Touchy You can post anything you like here, as long as it's apropriate, I won't stop you from that. This is volksdeutshce from skadi. Keep in mind that he's a vociferous Nordicist, despite his predominantly Middle Eastern ancestry and phenotype: Don't post pictures of other people without their permission Also, he obviously has a few high-watt lights shining on his face, which makes him appear lighter than he actually is. If you take a look at the back of his neck, you'll see the real shade of his skin. How would you classify him?

He looks like a cross between a Turk and a Hungarian I don't know what to say, mostly a mix of various strains of Mediterranean, Irano-Afghan etc.

LOL, if he's Nordish then so are 90+ of all Southern Europeans, and the vast majority of Middle Easterners. Which brings me to another point; in addition to being based on inane Nazi fetishism, "Nordish preservationism" is also based on cronyism. If someone is well liked he will inadvertently get a 'higher level' classification from our amateur anthropologist Nordishist friends.

LOL, notice the sheer inanity of his posts "Very Nordid Swede", "Very Nordid Norwegian", "Very Nordid American" etc... One would think that he makes it his life's calling to surf the Internet for pictures of "Nordids". I wonder when he's going to make the "Very Nordid Iranian" post

My intention is not to make fun of him based on his ancestry. But, this is just an example of how much bias can skew the perception of people when it comes to phenotype.
He's not periphery Nordic by a long shot, but that's irrelevant for me, because I don't base my respect ( or selfrespect ) on phenotype. I'd like to see him post here because he does have a lot of knowledge about the issues we're dealing with.
Being amongst a group of people who have questionable basis for showing their respect CAN be contagious. I'm sure that the atmosphere at Dodona is different.
He classified me as an Armenoid/Pontid, but I'm not angry because of that, even though that may have been tendentious.
PS. Prodigal, do you have any of your pics?

He looks pure european... But Atlanto-Med. I don't doubt that through some circumstances he could be seen as 100% European, but I doubt that he could be 100% atlanto-med.

"Volksdeutsche" strikes me as a normal White guy. Actually, he reminds me of Greek statues because of his prominent chin and the shape of his eye-sockets. So he seems to be Pontid-looking with a touch of Central European and maybe even a bit of Nordic. He also strikes me as relatively depigmented. I think I am a shade darker than him -- which shouldn't be a surprise, since I am partially Andalusian.

He has very dark eyes. I think I never seen such eye pigmentation on any Serb or Montenegrin ( or anyone north of that ).

He is 'white', but he has 'Asia Minor' written all over his face, if you know what I mean.

"Volksdeutsche" strikes me as a normal White guy. I never claimed that he wasn't "White". "White" is an extremely arbitrary term with little taxonomic value. What is "white" to you may not necessarily be "white" to me. The point is, this man claims to be Nordic, which he obviously isn't. Ironically, he has expressed strong anti-Mediterranean sentiments despite the fact that he's a Mediterranean. What do you mean by 'relatively'? He is certainly lighter than a Negro, but much darker than the average Central European. [/quote]

I saw his profile there, in the "Sub Race" field he put "Nordic".... He said that his ancestry is from Middle-East??? How can volksdeutch be a nordicist? ? Non sense....

Non sense.... Well, since I'm a capoid/mongoloid/turk/armenoid/mediterranean, I can honestly say that I too am a Noddycist. ;D

People in Skadi classified him as Nordic? "Periphery Nordish" was Loki's verdict. I answered that if he's "periphery Nordish", then so are over 90% of all Southern Europeans. This just goes to show that the central tenent of Nordishism is cronyism, not any objective racial or aesthetic ideal. If they like a Negro well enough, they'll find a way to squeeze him into their 'periphery Nordish' category (I am only half joking with this statement). Yes, he honestly believes himself to be Nordic. I guess some people just suffer from incurable dellusions. Yes, the Southern coast of the Caspian Sea. He also claimed to be of partial Russian ancestry. He has no Germanic ancestry that I know of, yet this does not stop him from calling himself "volksdeutsche". Considering that he also thinks of himself as "Nordic", this is not surprising. Ask him. -- volksdeutsche SourceNordishists are crazy....
